If you were ever in doubt that a ground chicken burger could be juicy and flavorful, these Chicken Feta Spinach Burgers will prove that they absolutely can be! Plus, they're super easy to make and a healthy alternative to beef burgers. They're the perfect summer meal!

Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground chicken (I used 92%)
  • ½ cup fresh spinach (chopped)
  • ⅓ cup feta (crumbled)
  • ¾ tsp salt
  • ½ tsp pepper
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp onion powder
  • 1 tbsp mayonnaise
  • Cooking oil

Directions

  1. 1

    In a large bowl, add ground chicken, chopped spinach, feta cheese, salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and mayonnaise. Lightly mix, making sure to not over-mix or else the burgers will be tough.

  2. 2

    Divide the meat mixture into 5 patties (about 3.5oz each). I recommend using either a kitchen scale or a plastic-lined ½ cup measuring cup to evenly divide the meat. Then use your thumb to place a slight indent in the middle.

  3. 3

    Lightly oil a skillet or griddle over medium-high heat. Add patties and cover with a lid or mixing bowl to dome, cooking the first side for 4-5 minutes. Then flip and cook the second side, uncovered, for 3-4 minutes more or until internal temperature is 155-160°F. Let rest 5 minutes before serving.
